    My layout is going to be a bit different, but i think it is the same concept. Attached is a picture that shows the layout

      That is almost exactly how my plans began (with the exception of the angle, I don't like metal in the mix). As I worked through it on paper and stacking bricks, I changed it to what it is now for both simplicity and for strength.

        That's Rado Hands design for the Swishy Oven right?

            I was looking at your photos of your build and it looks like you used the plans from Radio as well. Are you happy with the oven? I really liked his design

              Yep - I built the oven for my parents.

              The only changes i would make would be to insulate it better so it doesn't take so long to heat up. (2-3+ hours)

              It really needs more insulation under the floor, and some insulating blanket over the vault roof.

              If you got both sets of plans - in the extra stuff you can see a backyard build where they use some blanket on the vault roof.

              I would definitely do that if i had my time over.
